I made ghusl after a wet dream with the intent of uplifting the major and minor impurity is it enough of an intention. If someone could help me?

In summer, around May 20 to July 20, **the twilight in the sky doesn't disappear or disappears very late, after midnight.** It was narrated from 'Abdullah ibn 'Amr ibn al-‘Aas (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: > The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: > > "The time for Maghrib is when the sun sets, so long as the twilight has not disappeared. The time for 'Isha' is so long as half of the night has not passed." > > Narrated by Muslim, 612 . The question that people would ask is if the twilight doesn't disappear, **when is Isha time?** A hafiz told me that some people say you don't pray Isha at all, but this is blasphemy. He used the following verse and other evidence to support that you don't miss out Isha: > "Guard strictly (five obligatory) As-Salawat (the prayers) especially the middle Salat (i.e., the best prayer – 'Asr)." > > (Al-Baqarah 2:238) **He said that if you don't pray Isha at all, then there will be no middle salah as the order will be: Fajr, Zuhr, Asr and Maghrib, and Asr is the most important out of all of them.** What we see in salah timetables are **estimated time for Isha, but we do not know, precisely so that will not be reliable** as in some countries, **the twilight never disappears or disappears very late that which there is not enough time to pray Isha.** Also, it is makrooh to pray Isha after midnight. **Ramadan is in the summer. This is why Taraweeh is prayed quite late.** Also, in these countries, Suhoor is quite early. An example the hafiz told me was that in Norway, Maghrib is at 12:10, and Suhoor is at 12:40, meaning there are only 30 minutes to pray, so the people pray Maghrib and pray Isha straight after. **The problem is that student, teachers, etc. would be strongly affected by this.** They would have to pray Taraweeh and get back home around 12, and then they will have to wake up for Suhoor at 2, pray Fajr at around 3:20, then wake up for school at six etc. This hafiz told me that you should join Maghrib and Isha together, providing that you sleep straight after as you can stay up and could have prayed Isha later. This hadith supports it: > Ibn' Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him) who said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) joined Zuhr and 'Asr, and Maghrib and 'Isha,' in Madeenah when there was no fear and no rain. According to the hadeeth of Wakee,' he said: I said to Ibn' Abbaas: Why did he do that? He said: So that his ummah would not be subjected to hardship, i.e., so that they would not face any difficulty. > > (Muslim 705 ) **Question:** Is joining Maghrib and Isha salah together every day for two months allowed? I'm asking this question as this hadith below says: > The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said when asked which deed is most beloved to Allaah: > > "Prayer offered on time." > > Narrated by al-Bukhaari (527) and Muslim (85) . And if you keep joining up the prayer, you won't get the best deed. Also, this article says that Hanafis don't allow joining up prayers except in 2 cases, and I mainly follow Hanafi madhab. Still, the hafiz also supports Hanafi madhab, but he won't follow the rule for that.

It is mentioned in various parts of the Quran for example the verse [11:7] says "He it is Who created the heavens and the earth in six Days - and His Throne was over the Waters - that He might try you, which of you is best in conduct."

Christianity describes ten plagues of Egypt : (a) water into blood, (b) frogs, (c) lice, (d) mixture of wild animals or flies, (e) diseased livestock, (f) boils, (g) thunderstorm of hail and fire, (h) locusts, (i) darkness for three days, and (j) death of firstborn. In contrast, the Qur'an says: > So We sent upon them the flood and locusts and lice and frogs and blood as distinct signs, but they were arrogant and were a criminal people. > Qur'an 7:133 This difference motivates the question: **Question**: Does Qur'an 7:133 imply there were five plagues of Egypt? Qur'an 17:101 says *We had certainly given Moses nine evident signs*, but it seems likely this also includes miracles like his glowing hand and his staff. In the context of Prophet Musa, we also have: > So each We seized for his sin; and among them were those upon whom We sent a storm of stones, and among them were those who were seized by the blast [from the sky], and among them were those whom We caused the earth to swallow, and among them were those whom We drowned. And Allah would not have wronged them, but it was they who were wronging themselves. > Qur'an 29:40 Some (or all) of them don't seem like "plagues" (which would ordinarily be interpreted as a widespread catastrophe). They seem more localized and targeted. I'm not sure if these count.

According to [this answer](https://islam.stackexchange.com/a/46354/55666) on Islam StackExchange, it states that: > it is also possible for jinn (Muslims and disbelievers) to manifest themselves as human beings This leads me to ask whether it is possible for evil jinn/demons to disguise themselves as angels too. I've asked ChatGPT this before as well and it said that the Quran and the hadith don't explicitly mention such a thing, so I just want to confirm it here as ChatGPT isn't always the most reliable when it comes to topics like these.

Salam I've got a question about prayer, the tashahhud/at-tahiyat part. When I was saying the Attahiyyaatu lillaahi wassalawaatu part I didn't say lillaahi. Does that invalid my prayer if I miss a word? Also because I didnt know that I was meant to say that word (i forgot).

**Al salam Alykom** I know this question had been asked before but it doesn't appear which answer is the correct one. - **Is scraping web sites' data is haram?** websites usually doesn't agree that bots crawl it? I am scraping data from public available web pages,it can be copied manually but instead a bot saves the time & the effort. - **Is web automation haram?** for example bot login to my account ,post some data on my account. usually it is against website terms of use too,But is it fair!? I found arabic fatwa on Islamweb which says that web scraping is allowed because the data are publicaly available,the fatwa did not mention anything about terms of use ,so maybe the chekh doesn't know the whole story?or i am just too incredulous . sorry for any language mistake.

How do demons/devils in Islamic traditions come to be? How do they come into being, reproduction etc. I know that God wasn't the one to create them originally, as God only created angels, djinn, and humans originally. According to this entry, the Five Sons of Iblis reproduce by laying eggs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_five_children_of_Iblis

Salam Alaykum last day i was listening to Quran but then i felt something in my awrah and i touched my awrah with my phone and my phone had a page of Quran on. Did i commit Kufr and this was done unintentionally

The links in Arabic are below. Just trying to see if anyone knows the name of the book(s) or where I can find more information online. https://www.tasnimnews.com/fa/news/1393/12/18/680140 https://www.isna.ir/news/93101709497/

Salam, I am 13 year old girl who watches anime, and there are so many men characters that I love and have sexual thoughts about them. But instead of imagining them in real life I imagine myself with them in the fictional world kissing or something like that. Is this haram? If it is, then why did Allah give me a couple dreams of doing that stuff with my anime crushes? And what do I say/do to ask for forgiveness??

I was reading a post here on this site regarding this topic. https://islam.stackexchange.com/questions/35720/are-there-narration-chains-for-the-coccyx-tailbone-hadith-that-dont-go-through?rq=1 The poster was kind enough to include the link however it's in Arabic. I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find the English translation of these pages: http://www.ibnamin.com/num_hadith.htm https://www.alukah.net/library/0/72967/

There are a large number of versions of the below-listed hadith relating to the coccyx/tailbone which are all attributed to Abu Hurairah . **Question**: Are there narration chains for the coccyx/tailbone hadith that don't go through Abu Hurairah? In a recent answer to https://islam.stackexchange.com/q/35701/17163, the authenticity of this hadith was questioned. ----- List of ahadith at [sunnah.com](http://sunnah.com) : > The Messenger of Allah said: 'The whole of the son of Adam will be consumed by the earth, except for the tailbone, from which he was created and from which he will be created anew.' -- Abu Hurairah, Sunan an-Nasa'i 2077 (sunnah.com ) > > Every son of Adam will be devoured by the earth with the exception of the tail-bone from which he was created and from which he will be reconstituted. -- Abu Hurairah, Sunan Abi Dawud 4743 (sunnah.com ) > > The earth would consume all of the son of Adam except his tailbone. From it he was created, and from it he will be recreated (on the Day of Resurrection). -- Abu Huraira, Sahih Muslim 2955 b (sunnah.com ) > > ...Then Allah would cause the water to, descend from the sky and they (people) will sprout like vegetable. The only thing in a man which would not decay would be one bone (the tailbone) from which the whole frame would be reconstituted on the Day of Resurrection. -- Abu Huraira, Sahih Muslim 2955 a (sunnah.com ) > > ...The Prophet added: 'Everything of the human body will perish except the last coccyx bone (end part of the spinal cord), and from that bone Allah will reconstruct the whole body. Then Allah will send down water from the sky and people will grow like green vegetables'." -- Abu Hurairah [Al- Bukhari and Muslim] (sunnah.com ) > > “There is no part of man that will not disintegrate, apart from a single bone at the base of the coccyx, from which he will be recreated on the Day of Resurrection.” -- Abu Hurairah, [Grade : Sahih (Darussalam)] (sunnah.com ) > > ... "Then (after this period) Allah will send water from the sky and then the dead bodies will grow like vegetation grows, There is nothing of the human body that does not decay except one bone; that is the little bone at the end of the coccyx of which the human body will be recreated on the Day of Resurrection." (See Hadith No. 338) -- Abu Huraira, Narrated Al-A'mash (sunnah.com ) > > The Prophet said, "Between the two blowing of the trumpet there will be forty." The people said, "O Abu Huraira! Forty days?" I refused to reply. They said, "Forty years?" I refused to reply and added: Everything of the human body will decay except the coccyx bone (of the tail) and from that bone Allah will reconstruct the whole body. -- Abu Huraira (sunnah.com ) > > Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'z Zinad from al-Araj from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "The earth eats all of the son of Adam except the coccyx. He was created from it, and on it he is built."

We are planning to name my new born daughter as Inaya Anam. Inaya means care and protection. And Anam means Allah's creation/Allah's blessings. Is this a good name? Please guide.

Assalam Walaikum Everyone, hope everyone is doing well Alhamdulilah. I guess let me start from the beginning. Ever since I was in middle school pornography has affected my life negatively and especially my Iman. These past few months my Iman is completely gone to the point that I don't read Quran or pray Salah and my addiction has been sky-high. Earlier today, my urges came over me and I participated in giving and receiving oral sex to another woman (a prostitute), not vaginal (I'm a male). Afterwards, I feel disgusted and ashamed of what I have done, and I'm scared that I have committed a major sin. I now plan on praying salah and reading Quran, but most of all cutting pornography out of my life (it will be difficult, wish me luck). Please let me know if what I have done is major Zina or Makrooh!

A four rakaat fard prayer consists of: - Takbeer, sana - Two times Fatiha and a Surah - Atehyat - Two more times Fatiha (without aayah) - Atehyaat, Durood and prayer (Rab-ee-Jaalnee...) Is there any difference when performing sunnah prayers or nafils? Is durood also included in sunnah? and are last two rakaats read with only Surah Fatiha or an aayah needs to be recited after Fatiha during sunnah? Are there any other differences between performing sunnah and fard prayers?

Ismailis pray three times a day at fixed times based on the clock. During their prayers, they read, in congregation (or individually), some sort of book which they call a "du'a book." I don't know much about this book; it seems it has six chapters, the first being Surah Al-Fatiha from the Qur'an, and the last containing the names of all 40-50+ of their imams (ending with the living imam). How exactly was this book compiled, and does it change or remain unchanged throughout the ages?

Daraqutni recorded a hadith about prophet not renewing ablution after cupping and blood flowed from that cut. **Is this narration authentic or fair (Hasan)**? > Anas (Radiya Allahu Anhu) narrated that "The Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam) availed of cupping and prayed without making ablution. He just washed the place of the cupping (from where the blood was flowing out)." [Reported by Daraqutni] > IslamWeb

**Assalamu Alaikum**. I just wish to ask one of my doubts. I have been pondering so long to get an answer to my doubt. Searched a lot but still couldn't get a satisfactory answer. Due to lack of answers, i came to know that I started losing my faith. I wish to share it here. Please answer or respond anything if you got this. My question is regarding the verse from the Quran chapter 67 verse 5 where it says allah made the stars to be thrown at devils. > **'And We have certainly beautified the nearest heaven with lamps and have made them thrown at the devils and have prepared for them the punishment of the Blaze.'** ***[QURAN 67:5]*** well first, its not a scientific view. and its not something a person who has knowledge about astronomy accepts. well to my knowledge, i know that this universe has got a grand design. even skeptical scientists wonder how such a grand design happened. (it make them wonder if God really made it.) everything correctly at its place. there is proportionality throughout the universe. and we even came to know that gravitational waves exist. so if our star (sun) were to disappear one day it would disrupt the design and we wont exist (because gravity). in such a case how could stars be thrown at the devils? So i started to see scholarly interpretation of that verse. hence i came to know that most of the scholars said that word **(مَصَابِيحَ)** which literally meant lamp refers to shooting stars and not stars. the below are some of the links where scholars says that it refers to shooting stars http://www.islamweb.net/emainpage/index.php?page=showfatwa&Option=FatwaId&Id=324712 https://islamqa.info/en/243871 https://www.ahlalhdeeth.com/vbe/showthread.php?p=99813 https://islam.stackexchange.com/questions/24290/what-is-the-meaning-of-bimashobih-in-surah-675 https://versebyversequranstudycircle.wordpress.com/2015/01/29/tafseer-surah-al-mulk-ayaat-1-5/ http://islamicnewblogaddress.blogspot.in/2016/12/interpretation-of-verse-stars-are.html if the above verse really refers to shooting stars. then its something which could be logically and scientifically accepted based on some points. -but if we were to look deeply on the meaning of the word **(مَصَابِيحَ)** by comparing with other verses we could come to the conclusion that it has to refer to stars and not shooting stars. below is the explanation why **(مَصَابِيحَ)** has to refer stars. > "15.Do you not consider how Allah has created seven heavens in layers 16.And made the moon therein a [reflected] light and made the sun a burning **lamp** ?" ***[Surah 71:15-16]*** > "And He completed them as seven heavens within two days and inspired in each heaven its command. And We adorned the nearest heaven with **lamps** and as protection. That is the determination of the Exalted in Might, the Knowing." ***[Surah 41:12]*** >"And constructed above you seven strong [heavens] And made [therein] a burning **lamp**" ***[Surah 78:12,13]*** in both verses 71:16 and 78:13 (which are mentioned above) the word **lamp** is translated for Arabic word **سِرَاجًا** ,while the word **lamp** from verse 41:12 is translated for Arabic word **مَصَابِيحَ** . So when we compare the ayaths we can see that all the three verses (mentioned above) starts by referring the seven heavens and then says about the stars created which are referred as **lamps**. so the **lamp** has to refer either *star or some type or stage of a star*. next lets compare the verses 41:12 and 67:5 >"And He completed them as seven heavens within two days and inspired in each heaven its command. And We adorned the nearest heaven with **lamps** and as protection. That is the determination of the Exalted in Might, the Knowing."[Surah 41:12] >"And We have certainly beautified the nearest heaven with **lamps** and have made them thrown at the devils and have prepared for them the punishment of the Blaze."[Surah 67-5] by comparing the above two verses we could understand that both verses mentioned *lamps as adornment and made as protection by throwing at devils* from verse 41:12 (given above) we came to know that the Arabic word **مَصَابِيحَ** referred some sort of a star.hence the Arabic word **مَصَابِيحَ** from verse 67:5 also has to refer some sort of a star. even when quran gives us a clear idea why it has to refer star, i couldn't understand how scholars could interpret it as shooting stars. scholars trying to interpret it as shooting star seems to me like they are just convincing people by lying. so how could stars be thrown at devils? i am not saying almighty cant make someone do it.we know that prophet Muhammad (saw) is said to have split the moon. but we know that its a miracle. but Allah gave order to angels to throw stars if devil comes. hence it becomes a property. there is difference between miracle and property. miracles never fits with the data but properties has to be logical with the data from our observable universe. i did heard an explanation from the website answeringchristianity.com that, it could be **pulsars** and the **radiations emitted from pulsars**. and those those radiations are referred to be thrown at the devils. but i felt even a mistake in that explanation, there is no preposition **'from'** in that verse. hence claiming radiation from pulsars seems to contradict, because the verse clearly says **"lamps thrown at devils"**. so my question is, is ***that a scientific error??*** i heard some people saying that, wait patiently till u get the answer. some day scientist would prove that verse. but i get irritated to hear such comments because. if thats the case, then i wonder christians are waiting for the day when scientists will prove the world that earth is really flat. waiting for your replies. * ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** Note: sorry, the explanation which I mentioned above is wrong and is due to my lack of knowledge. But I wish not to remove it, so that people who may think the same way could get the point and understand the answers clearly.
